Founded in 1976 with the goal of drawing the best talent and practices from around the world, St. George’s University (SGU) has become a leading center for academic excellence worldwide. With students and faculty drawn from more than 150 countries, SGU is truly an international institution, with a uniquely global perspective, perfectly poised to help educate students in this rapidly changing world.
St. George’s University School of Medicine has a four-year Doctor of Medicine degree program or offers five-, six-, and seven-year Medical Degree Pathways with entry points available for students from any education system around the world. SGU has a large network of 75+ affiliated hospitals and health centers in the US and UK and also has a unique opportunity for students to begin their medical career in Grenada, the United Kingdom, or India.
Thanks to a partnership that exists between SGU School of Medicine and Northumbria University (NU) in Newcastle, United Kingdom, SGU gives international students the opportunity to earn an MD and complete up to 50 percent of their degree in the UK.
SGU and NU are offering a four-year MD program, a five-year MD pathway, and a six-year MD pathway that start in the UK. The length of the program/pathway depends on the candidate’s entry qualifications. Each program/pathway allows students to complete the first part of their education at NU in Newcastle, and to obtain a Doctor of Medicine (MD) degree awarded by SGU on graduation.
The final two years of study will connect traditional academic preparation with hands-on clinical experience. SGU offers clinical training available in the United States and the United Kingdom with a network of more 75 affiliated hospitals and clinics.
St. George’s University has over 19,000 graduates in medicine who follow the philosophy of global education and apply their education at home and abroad. SGU graduates are pursuing professions or further education in over 50 countries around the world.
They establish themselves in rewarding careers, having been enriched by their world network of colleagues and lifelong friends gained at St. George’s University.
I sincerely thank SI-UK for getting me accepted to UCL. The MSc in Urban Development and Planning is extremely competitive, but the right guidance provided by SI-UK made my dream of studying at University College London a reality. The services were exceptional from beginning to end.
